Start by imagining a book in your mind.This book covers everything that is happening, everything that has happened, and everything that will eventually happen.It seems to be everything in the world, all-encompassing.The book has a heavy, smooth cover, but the leather comes from some beast that never existed, like the paper on which the words are written, from some plant that never existed.The only pair of eyes that have read this book actually came from a blind man, and those eyes only had endless night.He is 'fate', and fate is always blind.It is connected to him by invisible chains, perhaps to protect it from being lost, or to prevent him from escaping from the book, or to show that fate and the story are one......
But he couldn't speak, and at the same time he couldn't speak to others.However, the Book of Destiny is also limited, it only contains the stories of the 'already there', but it cannot record the poems that did not exist, so that it is difficult to find the Sandman when he is missing.But today, when fate turned the next page of the story, I inexplicably saw myself appear in the book.This kind of thing hasn't happened before, but he also knows that as long as he appears in the story, things tend to get complicated.He's doing what he's doing now — standing in his home called the Labyrinth of Destiny with a heavy book of destiny in his hand, calling out to another family member in front of the paintings on the wall."
I am the destiny of the Endless Family, and here, I call you, my sister, though I don't know why I did it."
The oil painting on the wall came alive, and the beautiful woman in it was already smiling, but her eyes turned to her brother, making the smile even more vivid.In the next second, 'Death', who was wearing a long black dress and holding a small black parasol, stepped out of the oil painting, and the Ankh cross around her neck swayed gently with her steps, and she smiled: "You can turn a few more pages and see what will happen in the future, don't you know the reason?"
”Fate's face was as pale as a dead man, his brown hooded cloak obscured the upper half of his face, and only his star-like blind eyes were visible in the shadows, and he solemnly refused his sister's statement: "You know, I can't do that......""
Ah, no need to explain, I know, I'm just kidding."
Death put away his little umbrella and patted the lady's top hat on his head, the brim of which was dotted with withered white flowers, as beautiful as when they were alive."
Why?"
What is fate asking?
Is it the sister who is joking, or is it asking her why she is calling her.But death answered another thing, she showed a little sad expression, and her thin eyebrows looked weak: "Not long ago, God's body fell so far away from my house that a hundred stars, and his reincarnated flesh ball was almost burned and completely wiped out, and I could only take his ashes with me, don't you really see this in the book?"
”"No, it didn't appear in the book until you said it."
Fate has seen too many joys and sorrows and miracles, and anyone who appears in the story, or leaves the story, will not let him have emotional fluctuations: "However, isn't the body of God dead a long time ago?"
At about the same time as Dr.
Manhattan's death?
”Death suddenly spun in circles, and the hem of her skirt seemed to bloom as a black flower, but when she stopped spinning, the flower withered with it.She replied to her brother with a smile and put her hand on his shoulder, "So, I guess that's why you called me, because fate always has a plan." ”At this time, fate had already understood, and he slowly closed the book in his hand: "My sister, so you contacted the humans and wanted to use them to fight against fate's arrangement, and then use Lucifer against me?"
”"Yes, that's what I think, because I'm always thinking about the memories of the past that people have in their minds when they die, and the ideas for the future......"
Gentle Death still smiled, her snow-white little face was unusually beautiful, and she held the parasol in her arms: "Maybe in their afterlife it will be remembered, so that it is possible to transform into reality and stories, this is the meaning of the cycle of life, and the same goes for yours, my brother." ”Hearing this, fate has been relieved, he nodded slightly in agreement, as a family member he supports the decision to die, but as fate, he can only be silent."
We'll see you again soon, brother, don't be sad, because at the end of time, even death will die."
Saying that she too would die, death still smiled, and she lifted the hem of her skirt slightly, and then walked back to the oil painting on the wall, back to her own land of the dead.In the empty labyrinth, only fate was left alone, and he stood still holding the heavy book, as if he was thinking about something, but he seemed to be wandering.But at this moment, two rays that could turn at a right angle in mid-air hit him, emitting black energy that pierced his chest and knocked him to the ground in an instant.A tall, gray figure stepped out of the darkness at the end of the hallway, hands behind his back and walked towards his fallen fate, the sturdy creature absorbing the nearby light like a black hole, the only thing to be seen was the black 'Ω' sign on his chest.This sign is purer than the darkness of the labyrinth of fate, and against the backdrop of the environment, it seems to glow.The person who came came to stand beside fate, lowered his head as if looking at the members of the Endless Family who were high in the past, and announced indifferently: "Some people say that fate cannot be stifled, but I don't believe it, because I am Alpha and I am Omega." ”Then he lifted his foot and stomped on it.Even a second before his head burst, fate was still expressionless and calm, because through communication with death, he had already accepted his fate.When Death wants to turn the tide, he must stand his ground, which is to go with the flow, but this ......
But it wasn't his own arrangement.The big feet with black energy fell, and fate drifted like smoke and dust, as the embodiment of the concept, he was not a life in the conventional sense, but the uninvited guest obviously had the ability to kill him.Seeing fate drift away like a cloud of smoke, the comer sighed lightly, and was stunned for a moment before bending down to pick up the "Book of Destiny" that fell on the ground.Grabbing the invisible chains between the book and its destiny was like choking its throat, the book shook and struggled a few times, and then it was motionless.Not everyone can resist peeking into the future when they are in control of their destiny, and not everyone can resist tampering with everything.If you want to change, you need to know it first, and then you have to look at what is written in the book.The tall man picked up the book, reached out and touched the very smooth cover, and then opened it with his little pillar-like fingers.The content of it quickly made him laugh out loud, as he also saw his own fate in the book.Unlike the previous book, which was complex and mottled, like stars twinkling in an endless universe, this book only had the same sentence written from beginning to end, densely written on every page.That's it—Darkseid's constant presence!
